At Rest

Vehic/Purs
A man in a stolen truck chased at a very high rate of speed by a Texas Highway Patrol sergeant smashed into a Chevy Suburban and killed six family members. Dead: father Jose Luis Ortiz, mother Olga Lidia Morales-Cardoza, and children Elias Ortiz, Fernanda Ortiz, Ricardo Ortiz and Jose Ortiz, ranging in age from 1 to 6. One 3-year-old survived with injuries.
This record exists so that Fernanda Ortiz, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
